Tablets and Kindles and Books, Oh My!

Nick Bilton at The New York Times posted a nice little piece yesterday on the Bits blog comparing the size and feel of a 10″ tablet (like Apple’s) to both the Amazon Kindle and to a plain old hardcover book. There’s nothing revolutionary here, but it’s fun to compare this newfangled device to those old things. And notable, too, that even the Paper of Record is thinking of the Apple tablet in terms of books, rather than all the other media this device is supposed to handle.
